In dropping Brian O'Driscoll and beefing up his side, head coach Warren Gatland has laid his cards on the table ahead of the showdown in Sydney and Bowe, who helped Ulster to this year's RaboDirect PRO12 final, hopes the extra power will ensure he sees plenty more of the ball.
"It was just one of those games last week, unfortunately. I did a lot of chasing kicks, we didn't have very much possession and we did a lot of defending," said Bowe.
"With as big a side as we have picked here for tomorrow, hopefully, we'll be getting a lot of ball and getting on the front foot. We have to play rugby.
"Last week we did so much defending, we were on the back foot an awful lot and, when we had it, we kicked it away. This week, if we can play rugby, we can do a lot of damage, certainly with a lot of the players we've got in this team.
"There are huge ball carriers there. If we can hold on to the ball, keep battering over the top of the Aussies, hopefully, it will cause a bit of damage."
